A member asked:
I had a mirena put in 5.5 years ago. when i got it put in i was told it was good for 5 years. since then, the fda has approved it for pregnancy prevention for 7 years. should i remove it or is it still good?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Since pregnancy prevention with a Mirena can indeed last for at least 7 years, "it is still good"..at 5.5 years.
